My 6 cavity mold yields a .219" nose and .226" drive bands using an alloy of 80% COWW/20% Lino. I did note that my particular mold gives very poor bullet bases with a very ugly sprue cut. I disassembled the mold and put the sprue plate on some sand paper and discovered it was cupped pretty bad. I now have it trued up and I also touched up the sprue holes with a camphering cutter. Operation seems to be much smoother now but I have not had the opportunity to cast with it yet.
